[0072] Next, the technical solutions in the present application will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0073] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 , an embodiment of the present application provides a process for manufacturing a rim using a T-shaped plate. The process includes using a T-shaped aluminum plate to make an initial blank; then performing curling, flattening, and leveling to form a second flat surface; welding the second flat surface; then grinding and rounding the welded part to form a formed cylindrical blank; cutting off both end faces of the formed cylindrical blank in the axial direction to form an end-cut cylindrical blank; flaring and bulging to perform a flaring deformation on the end-cut cylindrical blank to form an initial rim 11, improving the accuracy in the rim manufacturing process; spinning to perform a spinning forming on the initial rim 11 to form a first semi-finished rim 12; performing a solution aging treatment on the first semi-finished rim 12 to shorten the manufacturing time of the rim, and then performing a secondary spinning treatment to form a second semi-finished rim; performing a machining treatment on the second semi-finished rim to form a finished rim, and detecting its dimensional parameters to improve the yield rate and save costs. It can improve the accuracy of manufacturing the rim, shorten the manufacturing time of the rim, improve the yield rate, and save costs.

[0074] A process for manufacturing a rim using a T-shaped plate provided by this solution includes the following steps:

[0075] S1: Blanking, cutting the T-shaped aluminum plate according to a preset size to form an initial blank.

[0076] It can be known that the T-shaped aluminum plate has a protrusion 1, and the initial blank is rectangular as a whole. At the same time, according to the requirements of the rim, aluminum plates with different material properties are selected.

[0077] S2: Curling, curling the initial blank inward into a cylindrical shape to form an initial cylindrical processed blank, and the two ends of the initial cylindrical processed blank are closed, and the protrusion 1 of the initial blank is located inside the initial cylindrical processed blank.

[0078] It should be noted that during the curling process, there should be no distortion, and the integrity and smoothness of the initial cylindrical processed blank should be maintained.

[0079] S3: Flattening, performing a flattening treatment on the closed part at both ends of the initial cylindrical processed blank to form a first flat surface 2.

[0080] It should be noted that the degree of flattening, that is, the area of the first flat surface 2, is not limited here and can be freely adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0081] S4: Leveling, performing a leveling treatment on the first flat surface 2 to form a second flat surface, and the middle gap of the second flat surface ≤ 0.3 mm.

[0082] It should be noted that a leveling machine is used to level the first leveling surface 2 to form a second leveling surface.

[0083] S5: Cleaning, cleaning the second leveling surface to remove dirt.

[0084] It can be understood that cleaning the second leveling surface is mainly to remove dirt, including oil stains, impurities, etc., to ensure the cleanliness of the second leveling surface and improve the stability of welding.

[0085] S6: Straight welding, using a straight welding machine to weld the cleaned second leveling surface to form a welded cylindrical blank.

[0086] It should be noted that the welded cylindrical blank formed by welding becomes the truly connected cylindrical material.

[0087] S7: Grinding, grinding the welding joint of the welded cylindrical blank.

[0088] It should be noted that grinding the flash and the like generated during the welding process reduces the risk of crack propagation.

[0089] S8: Re-rounding, performing re-rounding treatment on the ground welded cylindrical blank to form a formed cylindrical blank.

[0090] It should be noted that performing re-rounding treatment on the ground welded cylindrical blank ensures the smoothness of the formed cylindrical blank.

[0091] S9: End cutting, cutting off the two end faces of the formed cylindrical blank in the axial direction to form an end-cut cylindrical blank.

[0092] It should be noted that the formed cylindrical blank is cut to a suitable size by end cutting to facilitate the subsequent process.

[0093] S10: Flaring and bulging, performing flaring and bulging deformation on the end-cut cylindrical blank to form an initial rim 11.

[0094] It should be noted that this step adopts two flaring and bulging processes to ensure that the initial rim 11 is deformed in place.

[0095] This step specifically includes:

[0096] Measuring the initial diameter D of the end-cut cylindrical blank 0 , measuring the length L of the end-cut cylindrical blank, and calculating the theoretical diameter D of the initial rim 11 through the following formula 理 , D 理 = D 0 + k × ΔP × L, where k represents the coefficient related to the material, and ΔP represents the applied pressure change;

[0097] Measure the actual diameter D of the initial rim 11 实 , calculate the actual diameter D of the initial rim 11 实 and the theoretical diameter D of the initial rim 11 理 to obtain the precision error q, and determine whether the precision error q is less than 0.1%; if the precision error q is less than or equal to 0.1%, output the first precision signal; if the precision error q is greater than 0.1%, output the second precision signal.

[0098] Measure the force F applied to the end-cut cylindrical blank, measure the force-bearing area A of the end-cut cylindrical blank, and calculate the applied pressure change ΔP according to the formula

[0099] If the first precision signal is received, it is determined that the actual diameter D of the initial rim 11 实 is correct, and a stable signal is output to keep the force F applied to the end-cut cylindrical blank stable; if the second precision signal is received, it is determined that the actual diameter D of the initial rim 11 实 is incorrect, and an adjusted force signal is output to adjust the force F applied to the end-cut cylindrical blank.

[0100] This step further includes:

[0101] Measure the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1 , compare it with the preset flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 2 , calculate the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1 and the angle deviation δ from the preset flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 2 , where

[0102] Determine whether the angle deviation δ is less than 0.1%; if the angle deviation δ is less than or equal to 0.1%, output the first deviation signal; if the angle deviation δ is greater than 0.1%, output the second deviation signal.

[0103] If the first deviation signal is received, it is determined that the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1 is correct, and a passing instruction is sent to enable the spinning step; if the second deviation signal is received, it is determined that the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1 is incorrect, and a pause instruction is sent, and the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1 is adjusted;

[0104] Based on the pause instruction, determine whether the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1 is too large or too small; if the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1 is too large, perform a positive flaring correction on the initial rim 11; if the flaring angle θ of the initial rim 11 1If it is too small, the initial rim 11 is corrected by reverse flaring.

[0105] S11: Spinning, the initial rim 11 is spun formed to form the first semi-finished rim 12.

[0106] It should be noted that a spinning machine and a special spinning die are used to spin form the end of the initial rim 11.

[0107] S12: Heat treatment, the first semi-finished rim 12 is solution-aged and then subjected to secondary spinning to form the second semi-finished rim.

[0108] It should be noted that solution treatment is first carried out through a heat treatment furnace, and the solution time and temperature are controlled; then, through secondary spinning, the deformation caused by heat treatment is repaired; finally, aging treatment is first carried out through the heat treatment furnace, and the aging time and temperature are controlled.

[0109] S13: Machining, the second semi-finished rim is machined to form the finished rim.

[0110] It should be noted that processes such as turning, filing, planing, milling, and grinding are used to machine the second semi-finished rim to form the finished rim.

[0111] S14: Inspection, the dimensional parameters of the finished rim are inspected.

[0112] This step specifically includes:

[0113] Measure the outer diameter R of the finished rim 1 , measure the inner diameter R of the inner ring installation part of the finished rim 2 , calculate the width W of the finished rim 0 , where W 0 = R 1 - R 2 ; Compare whether the width W of the finished rim 0 is within the preset finished rim width range [W min , W max ;

[0114] If the width W of the finished rim 0 is within the preset finished rim width range [W min , W max , then output the first width signal; if the width W of the finished rim 0 is less than the preset minimum finished rim width W min , then output the second width signal; if the width W of the finished rim 0 is greater than the preset maximum finished rim width W max , then output the third width signal.

[0115] Upon receiving the first width signal, determine the width W of the finished rim 0 is correct and send a width detection pass instruction; upon receiving the second width signal, determine the width W of the finished rim 0 is too small and send a first machining parameter adjustment instruction to adjust the parameters of the machining step; upon receiving the third width signal, determine the width W of the finished rim 0 is too large and send a second machining parameter adjustment instruction to adjust the parameters of the machining step.

[0116] This step further includes:

[0120] This step further includes:

[0121] Measure the roughness Ra of the finished rim 1 ; compare with the preset roughness Ra of the finished rim 2 ; calculate the roughness ratio γ of the roughness Ra of the finished rim 1 and the preset roughness Ra of the finished rim 2 , where judge whether the roughness ratio γ is less than or equal to the preset roughness ratio γ 0 ; if the roughness ratio γ is less than or equal to the preset roughness ratio γ 0 , output a first roughness signal; the roughness ratio γ is greater than the preset roughness ratio γ 0, then output the second roughness signal;
